A new Ronald McDonald House planned in New Haven, Conn., to meet the needs of the growing Yale-New Haven Children’s Hospital, according to an article on the Medical Construction & Design website.
Yale-New Haven has tripled the number of inpatient and outpatient services and the planned 28,000-square-foot facility will more than triple the number of guestrooms available.
The project will be built in three phases, allowing families to occupy the facility while construction continues. The first phase will provide 18 guestrooms, each with a private bathalong with two private “respite rooms.”
The design includes natural daylight, water features and plants in entrance and common areas.
